You are making my point here samphin. I mean no disrespect to anyone nor am I attempting to hijack a thread here. This thread is about this incident. The doctors were making this same point you are making on Fox News. This incident can likely be attributed to long term abuse of steriods. So here is my point.
Although he was found not guilty back in the 90's, I truly believe Vince McMahon not only encouraged but possibly demanded steroid use from his performers at one point in time. Even if he never directly told Benoit to use or made the roids available to him, IF he did for any of his other employees he created the environment that led Benoit to steriod abuse, which in turn resulted in the murder or his wife and CHILD. If one wrestler at any point was told by McMahon to take roids or was told where to get them then it becomes known throughout the business that this is what the boss wants. If this is the case McMahon is somewhat responsible for this incident. He should be in prison and all of his assets seized. Its gone too far. Way too far. And as far as baseball there has never been any inclination that people who run it (or football) that they encouraged steroid use. The players do it out of their own poor decision. WWE should be shut down and professional wrestling cleaned up. If it can be reopened by a legitimate ownership and the product be put out there steroid free and the content of the storylines kept reasonable then good for it. Problem is I just dont think it can survive as a business without pushing the envelope the way it does.
And on another note it will be interesting to see where this prescription of Benoit's leads. Didnt they uncover this in baseball and see what Dr's prescribed the steroids for what players??? Wasnt that the recent case with Gary Matthews Jr? What will McMahon have to say if the investigation finds that the DR. who prescribed the roids for Benoit does this for other wrestlers or it can be linked to McMahon himself setting it up? Interesting. Bottom line is there is about to be some serious heat on McMahon no matter who likes it. These are legitimate questions that the media is already asking since that news conference earlier.
